I test rode the new WC GS today

Bag of bones

I test rode a wc 1200 last week and was put off by really clunky gearbox
And noise from engine that could only be described as a tin can full of
Bolts rattling around I was told by dealer that it would get better with
Time. Ha ha
For them maybe. Not for me though.
On a positive note motor was very nippy, and steering felt very sports bike ish
But rattle have ruined me.
 
No pleasing you WC lot is there, some moan, oh another test ride report, some say give me more :eek

ok if some of you tossers want to know then..............briefly

i didn't like it,

engine was very quick but lacked the character of my 2012 GSA
gearbox clunked, a lot, throttle was jerky, it was blue :barf tyres looked horrible ( anakee3 ) and Worthingwelsh said i looked like a twat on it

Wind protection not as good, mirrors worse than the GSA, could feel the engine through the clutch when you backed off.

cant be bothered to write anymore, go and ride one yourself.

please take this in the spirit it was written you moany sods :aidan
 
Thank god you didn't like it , we can forego the colour discussion and posting of pics.

Tested one, wasn't happy like the one I've still got will try again next year.:thumby:

Did you have this noise all the time or mainly when changing gear?
 
I had a clunky noise when changing gear but the box of bolts noise was there all the time. Really was noisey. And I honestly was put off. I'm no way biased I luv my gs but was very disappointed with this wc.
Done absolutely nothing for me. To be honest it was a pleasure to get back on
My own bike and I thought it would be the other way round.
Try it for yourself.
